Necessary to get fender "rolled"????
Just make sure you have a reputable person do it, because if done wrong, you can end up with cracked paint. They be using an actual fender rolling tool and a heat gun. I know a guy who does a good job up in the Stockton area if you're ever up there.

This is horrible advice. You don't even mention a wheel offset. Wheels with a 10.5" diameter should have a tire that is 275-295 in width, not 2" less.

My setups // past
19x11 +18/+3 255 35 19 all around
Miester S1 // 18x10/12 +4 all around 225/40/18 & 275/35/18
Veilside Racing F 18x10/11.5 225/40/18 & 265/35/18
Most guys run 245's on 11" wide wheels in the flush world. I like the look of 275 on a 12, most run 265. My first wheels setup was a 8.5/9.5 setup +25 all around, I ran 245/275 and didnt have to roll at all, no rubbing.
What tires are those 305's your running, They look SUPER narrow to be that stretched on a 12" wheel. Whats the specs on the wheels and tire sizes please.
I know they look super narrow right? I was astonished myself.
Next time around Ill buy conti's... but these are Pirelli PZero Neros. 305 25 20.
Bought 325 25 20s to replace them. Pirelii Pzero Nero again.
AND had recent bought 295 25 22s for the last set of wheels.. i apparently really enjoy throwing hard earned money out the door for tires this year.
True.. hellaflush is crazy.

I hate buying tires. Okay, I gues the larger diameter and the shorter aspect ratio is whats doing that, I'd love to rock a 305 and look stretched on my 12" wheels!
But when I rebarrel My ordens out back to a 13/13.5 I'll stretch iT! haha. for now im happy with my 12's, I just wanna see how they get along with my ls6 next month.....
yeah these are forgestar 20x12 in the back.. Id love to rock a big lip, but the weight is just a total buzz kill for daily driving.. these things are insane light.. its freaky really.. the wheel barrels feel like they must be plastic or something.. very odd.. but i like.
and yeah i hear ya on actaully NEEDING big tires... my engines off to the machine shop yesterday for forged internals.. big single turbo next week.
BIG tires and camber set for max contact patch? check.
Only thing limiting this car will be the clutch. JWT combo.. hope they get me up near 600 hp or so w boost kicking at around 3k rpms.

going to get them rolled. initially, i was concerned about body damage. i really did not know much about the process (the fact that it is done underneath and out of sight to add room to the wheel well). i was under the impresstion that it affected the exterior, an quite possibly the paint.
i will go with the set up mentioned in the OP...
hope it works..

Noob here..
I want to go with 19" Varrstoen wheels. I care mostly about looks but don't want wheel well rub obviously..
I am told that I should do a 245 tire 9.5wheel front and a 275 10.5 rear.
PROBLEM.
They are telling me that I need to get the fender rolled. I don't want to.
QUESTION
What is my best option for maintaning a clean flush look WITHOUT having to alter the body??
thanks!
